A financial executive, Warren Lammert is the founder and co-CIO of Granite Point Capital. This Massachusetts-based firm has provided clients with investment management services since its inception in 2004. Beyond his financial acumen, Warren B. Lammert's interests extend to the realm of diet, drawing inspiration from Gary Taubes' research.

The most widely accepted rule concerning a healthy diet for curbing excess weight or obesity focuses on minimizing calorie intake. Despite this approach, many people eventually develop obesity, and some suffer complications of this disease - such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, body pain, and stroke.

American journalist Gary Taubes has interviewed physicians promoting the ketogenic diet for its data-supported health benefits for over two decades. He published "The Case For Keto" in 2020. This is the first publication investigating ketogenic diets' effects as alternatives to regular carbohydrate-intensive foods.

Ketogenic diets are high-fat, low-carbohydrate, and adequate-protein diets that encourage the body to extract cellular energy from fats rather than carbohydrates. According to Gary, most people develop obesity because they consume high amounts of carbohydrates. He posits that the established method of curbing calorie intake may not be effective for losing weight if the bulk of the diet is carbohydrates. His research shows how the type of food consumed and body chemicals called hormones impact weight gain and provides a feasible way to eat healthy.
